To Stand Alone

December 31, 2005

by Jason Stotts Somtimes I feel like this: alone on top of a mountain, watching the sun burning in the sky, and wondering if I am watching the death or rebirth of humanity. Automatically Generated Related Posts:No Related Posts

Vulgarities

December 30, 2005

by Jason Stotts It’s interesting – although I’ve had a surplus of time recently, I’ve done hardly anything constructive at all.

Solitarity

December 12, 2005

by Jason Stotts One thing I’ve found, and which has recently become all too clear to me, is that a philosopher is a different kind of person than most.
